All my life I've been rowing against the tide. What can I do? It seems I was born that way.
I'm not trying to follow a set of rules and stuff. I'm just living my life.
The theater I got to do informs every move I make as an actor and will for the rest of my life. I can't shake it if I wanted to, but I don't want to.
Through a huge duration of my life, someone has always picked up after me. And when you're on your own and you're trying to be independent, it's definitely different.
Having kids has been a turning point in my life because when I was still single, all I wanted was to impress beautiful girls.
Health-wise, I couldn't have said what my life expectancy would've been if I'd just carried on doing solid blocks of stand-up.
I put together the influences of my life in as clear a way as I possibly can, in the same way that Beethoven or Schoenberg or Bach put their influences together.
I've always done things the hard way. I was born like a piece of tangled yarn. The job is trying to untangle it, and I'll probably go on doing it for the rest of my life.
I've been playing sexually aware women most of my life. At this point I expected to be playing moms and wives. It's exciting to play a femme fatale.
I've been fortunate that I can be selective enough to do acting when it's really furthering what I want to do with my life.
My life often feels like a whirling dervish of kids, writing, speaking, and pastoral ministry.
I look so fondly back on that time in my life when you first got an agent and you were in your mid-twenties and the world was your oyster.
In retrospect, it seems like everything in my life led to me becoming a writer. I just didn't realise it at the time.
I work out every day. It's part of my life. That's one of the benefits of having kids in school full-time.
I don't see myself in terms of artifice. I see myself as a real person who chooses to live my life in an open way - artistically.
I'm an old man, and all my life I've said that Notre Dame should remain independent because it's a national school.
This is the first time in my life I've ever been happy, not completely happy, but happier than I've ever been.
I was born in Philadelphia, and I've tried to escape that city all my life. I end up writing plays that force me back to Philadelphia, at least psychologically if not physically.
My life has been a blessing. I'm grateful for everything I do have and the places I'm going and the things I've seen.
I've learned in my life that you really don't know what's possible until you're already doing it.
In real life, my parents pretty much approved of all my boyfriends. I guess I was doing something wrong. I should have been more rebellious.
